The embodiments herein is related to is for what Network finding and downlink transmission (Tx) and reception (Rx) wave beam obtained The UE receiver implementations of system design and correlation.In one example, embodiment can be configured as supporting 5G RAT ripples Beam cell operation.UE can perform symbol by detecting the PSS sequences sent in different frequency sub-bands using different Tx wave beams Number level timing acquisition and DL Tx wave beams obtain.Here, frequency subband refers to the subcarrier in all available subcarriers in system Subset, and subcarrier (the distributed subband) at equal intervals of one group of continuous subcarrier (local subband) or one group can be included.Work as profit With specific DL Tx wave beams come the SSS of beam forming and PSS when being sent on the same subband of adjacent PSS/SSS symbols, UE can Channel estimation is performed with the subband sent by using the PSS detected to the DL Tx wave beam acquired thereon, and can To be used to detect SSS using channel estimation.Even if when each AP tools in one or more AP associated with a cell ID When having a limited number of RF chains, the DL Tx wave beams from different AP can also be by channeling, and UE can be in a PSS/ In SSS examples multiple DL Tx wave beams are obtained from one or more AP.
On the one hand, compared with traditional LTE is designed, this technology allows UE during cell discovery phase in a PSS/ Detected in SSS examples and measure a large amount of DL Tx wave beams.If AP than UE have greater number of antenna (and radio frequency " RF " chain) with And higher transmit power, then compared with PSS omni-direction transmissions, embodiment can receive beam forming in UE when PSS is detected In the case of realize that the covering of extension and lower system detectio postpone.For example, table 1 is depicted for having 75 kilo hertzs of subcarriers The 100MHz system bands being spaced in (for example, the distance between subcarrier spacing is 75KHz) and 28GHz non line of sight (NLOS) channel The expected covering and delay of the various PSS transmission plans (for example, PSS transmission plans (1), (2), (3) and (4)) of wide system. For example, the PSS of (omni-Rx) is received with the beamforming transmission (BF-Tx) taken on 2 symbols in 16 sons and omnidirectional Transmission plan (4) has shorter PSS transmission times than the omni-Tx and BF-Rx PSS transmission plans (2) taken in 1 son And broader covering.The BF-Tx that 16 sons take and BF-Rx PSS transmission plans (3) can by using Tx wave beams into Shape PSS time domain is repeated further to increase covering.
Table 1 is for different PSS transmission plans (75KHz subcarrier spacings, 100MHz system bandwidths, 28GHz NLOS letters Road) covering and delay analysis
On the one hand, PSS and SSS sequence pairs are mapped to one or more cooperation AP.Can be in a PSS/SSS reality One or more cooperation AP wave beam mark is exported in example from the subband distributed of downlink transmission (DL Tx) wave beam (ID).With wherein each DL Tx wave beams compared with the system that a SSS sequence is associated, this technology allows given PSS/SSS sequences Row collect to represent the wave beam of greater number, for example, 32 wave beam × 168 (number of SSS sequences) × 3 based on every cell ID (per 16 wave beams of symbol, 2 symbols are used for PSS and 2 to 16128 wave beams on (number of PSS sequences)=4 symbols Symbol is used for SSS).In this way it is possible to avoid due to detecting failure caused by fuzzy in dense deployment scene.
On the one hand, when UE performs SSS detections only on the subband for acquired DL Tx wave beams, can only exist Performed on the selected subband of minority and test (for example, 168) for a large amount of hypothesis of SSS detections.In addition, using from detecting The relevant Sequence Detection of the channel information of PSS retrievals can ensure to improve the detection performance to SSS.
On the one hand, as described below, there is provided new PSS/SSS transmission structures with allow UE except cell ID detection and Outside time/frequency synchronization, also perform the acquisition of DL Tx wave beams and/or down-link reception (DL Rx) wave beam obtains.
On the one hand, for the 5th generation (5G) RAT, especially for midband or high frequency band, it can be assumed that minimum system Band is wider than 6 resource blocks (RB) of 3GPP LTE Rel.8 radio frames, and has larger subcarrier spacing, for example, tool There are 50 or 100 RB of 75KHz subcarrier spacings.
On the one hand, in symbol or with not deposited in other transmission (for example, physical down link sharing channel (PDSCH)) In PSS and SSS frequency domain multiplexing.On the one hand, the first group code can be exclusively used in PSS transmission, and the second group code can be with It is exclusively used in SSS transmission.Operated for the individual cell of the auxiliary not from anchor cell or main plot, it may be predetermined that first Group code and the second group code.On the one hand, the first group code and the second group code can be semi-static configurable, and It can be indicated in macrocell auxiliary operation via macrocell interface.Can send one of one or more DL Tx wave beams or Multiple AP can be associated with given PSS and SSS sequence pairs.The given PSS and SSS sequence pairs can utilize one or more Individual DL Tx wave beams carry out beam forming, and are mapped to PSS/ using different Tx wave beams come the PSS/SSS of beam forming The different subbands (for example, frequency preferentially maps) of SSS symbol centerings.
If in addition, compared with the number of the DL Tx wave beams configured, one or more AP have a limited number of RF Chain, then it can configure multiple PSS/SSS symbols pair.Can be in difference come the PSS/SSS of beam forming using different Tx wave beams PSS/SSS symbols sent on.It is mapped to using same Tx wave beams come PSS the and SSS sequence pairs of beam forming The same subband of PSS/SSS symbols pair, to allow the relevant detection to SSS.
After PSS detections, UE can estimate signal and the interference and noise ratio (SINR), reference of the Tx wave beams detected Signal reception power (RSRP), and/or Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ), and/or determine whether to select corresponding Tx wave beams With subband so that SSS is detected.On the other hand, UE can measure every height at least one in PSS symbols or SSS symbols The received signal strength (RSS) that takes, and appropriate Tx wave beams are selected based on the RSS measured.
For time and Frequency Synchronization, UE it is not assumed that all acquisitions associated with same cell ID transmission Tx wave beams with Same time and frequency reference are sent.Can be inclined according to estimated time and/or frequency for the cell ID, UE detected Shifting value is grouped to perform a pair wave beam associated with the cell ID detected, and the combination of the measurement result of wave beam will be existed For the further refinement of time/frequency bias estimation in same group.For example, when UE can be by estimated in group Sequence/frequency offseting value carries out average, incoherently multiple wave beams in combination group detection measurements, and/or to being estimated in group The time/frequency deviant of meter takes weighted average (wherein, weight is based on RSRP, SINR, RSRQ or RSS measurement result) to enter one Step refinement time and frequency (for example, sequential/frequency) bias estimation.Alternatively, UE can be based on the channel estimation for wave beam Come the measurement result of multiple wave beams being coherently combined in group, and the time/frequency deviant through refinement is obtained, this is by examining Consider multiple measurement results and carry out optimizing detection measurement.
On the one hand, for the symbol and symbol/subframe of the predetermined number or institute's configured number transmitted for PSS/SSS Index, network can be according to target coverage, operational frequency bands and AP antenna configurations to be configured flexibly beam angle, for spy Determine the number of cell ID DL Tx wave beams and corresponding subband.
